1. It’s the Monday after the time changed, in case you didn’t
know.
2. I feel as awful as you’d imagine, and probably as awful as
everyone else has already told you they feel.
3. But I also wanted to share that I think Sebastian is
growing up a little too quickly and I would like all of you to make him stop.
4. First it was that I could put his clothes out and he would
put them on.
5. But just recently he’s started changing his clothes
periodically throughout the day, getting them out of his closet himself and
coming up with remarkable outfits.
6. Like this one:
7. And I love it. I
do.
8. Now his sister hasn’t mastered that art, obviously, and
while he was looking particularly stylish in a shirt that used to be mine, this
is what Adele looked like:
9. In my defense, it was a wicked rushed morning and all of
us wanted to go back to bed at about 7:45 a.m.
10 Who am I kidding, her hair always looks like that. Unless I go somewhere.
11 Like this weekend.
I took the kids to visit some friends of mine that I don’t get to see as
often as I like.
12. Adele had
pigtails.
13. Which while adorable totally didn’t make up for the fact that she ran up
and down the wooden-floored hallway for a good 30 minutes to an hour, yelling
at the top of her lungs.
14. Sebastian also decided that that would be fun.
15. My kids are wild.
But I kept reassuring everyone that they weren’t like that ALL THE TIME.
15. No one believed me.
16. I also said that somehow the combination of Christopher
and myself created super crazy children.
17. But also pretty awesome.
18. Sebastian also takes it upon himself to close the
bathroom door upstairs whenever Adele goes up there, because she likes to
unroll all the toilet paper and throw it into the toilet and take all the
shampoo bottles and hid them in random places.
19. He just does it, without me asking him to.
20. He also will fetch things for me or give toys to Adele
when she’s fussing, to try to make her feel better.
21. And earlier he stole two cookies from the counter without
me knowing.
22. At least he told me about it when he was done.
23. But my point is that he has his own mind, and is getting
big enough to execute thoughts he has, like sneaking cookies or changing into
pajamas whenever he gets sent to his room for acting out.
24. Sometimes he changes into pajamas six times a day.
25. Hey, did anybody see The Walking Dead last night and were
you as disturbed as I was?
26. I couldn’t sleep.
The end got me, and kind of won’t let go.
27. I know that wasn’t really what I was talking about, but
my mind won’t shut it off.
28. I blame the time change.
